Placing the new exe on my C drive in very little time at all, the exe size is 14MB. Now when I decide to build an exe to the Novell Network K drive (where users operate), the build will take approx 2 to 3 minutes to build.

Thanks I will doing some testing on the NCOPY command and see if I see a performance improvement.
